Thursday, October 20- PURPLE THURSDAY

This Purple Thursday, make a fashion statement that really says something: wear something purple in honor of survivors! Tee shirts, masks, scarves, totes, bandanas, eye/nail color, signage – the only limit is your imagination!

Post photos of yourself in your purple gear and a message of support for survivors using #PurpleThursday and #SpreadLoveDC.
